Step 1
You leave Reykjavik for a dive into the Icelandic nature!
No need to change location every day to have a fantastic holiday in Iceland! Choose to settle down in one of Iceland’s most beautiful areas, Lake Myvatn. Besides the stunning setting, it is a great departure point for many magnificent walks, hikes and excursions, or for just relaxing in the natural geothermal hot springs of the local “Blue Lagoon!” With or without a rental car.
This trip is available from June to September
Flight from Reykjavik to Akureyri. Drive to Lake Myvatn stopping by the Godafoss falls.
Stay in Myvatn while going on pre-reserved excursions or your own activities with an optional rental car.
Drive back to Akureyri. Flight back to Reykjavik.
Note: it is possible to spend a night in Akuyeyri at the beginning or end of your stay.
There are many people around Myvatn willing to share their lovely homes with visitors. Most people speak English and extend very warm welcomes. They provide simple comfort and local cuisine. This is evidently the best way to meet Icelanders, who will, as natives, be able to give you intimate local advice for your travels.
Situated on the north-eastern shore of the lake, the Reykjahlíd is a cosy hotel located on the lake shore close to the village of Reykjahlid. It is a family hotel that was built in 1947 making it the region’s oldest. Most of its 9, very comfortable rooms, have magnificent views over the lake. On the top floor, a large glass panel is a wonderful place to observe some of the lake’s many bird species. An excellent restaurant serves traditional meals of fish or lamb. The hotel also organizes many excursions to it’s surrounding attractions: Askja, Dettifoss … etc.
The region has other hotels of similar quality. For the months of July and August, it is necessary to book early…
